Goodwill seeking donations
Goodwill will be sending a trailer out to the South Belt area Saturday, June
28, to collect items such as clothes, housewares, small appliances and other
miscellaneous items.
Last Friday the Goodwill warehouse in Houston burned down, depleting the
majority of their stock.
Sponsored by the South Belt-Ellington Chamber of Commerce and the South
Belt Coalition, the drive will assist in replenishing the items lost in the fire.
Look for more details in next week’s paper.

Two felons arrested
Two males were arrested last Monday after being stopped in the 12700 block
of Scarsdale for a traffic violation.
Harris County District 13 Marshal Richard Holloman said he stopped the vehicle
because occupants were not wearing seat belts. Holloman said neither the driver
nor the passenger had any identification with him.
Minutes later, Precinct 2 Constable Gary Hogue stopped to assist.
After checking the information the men had told him, Holloman found that
both were wanted for multiple warrants.
Daamon Patterson, the 20-year-old driver, is wanted by the Maryland Police
Department for a felony theft and by the Washington D.C. Police Department for
a felony charge.
James Jackson, 27, is wanted by the Houston Police Department for three traffic
warrants and a felony parole violation.
Neither of the men is a resident of the South Belt area.
Both were arrested and transported by the constable to the Harris County jail.
Holloman said the older man’s next stop is the Texas Department of Correc-
tions at Huntsville and the younger one would probably be sent to Maryland to
face felony charges.

The San Jacinto College

sent “Tung and Cheek,” by
Pat Cook, as its summer of-
fering for area audiences.

abundance of clues and
detective Tony Cheek and
his dim-witted partner,
Squatty.
South Belt resident Joe
Oliverez plays Cheek with
John Ivey, also of the South
Belt area, as Squatty. An-
other South Belt resident
Jeanine Matuszewski is
Miss Thatcher; Cathy Her-
ron plays Honey P. Dia-
mond and Frank Garza of
Pearland is Hope Diamond.
The; remaining two roles are
double cast, with Denice
Garlington and Kim Saxon
of the South Belt area shar-
ing the role of Clarice
Hopney and Don Schuck of
Friendswood and Clinton
Stephen, Pearland, alter-
nating as Jeffrey Hopney.
“Tung and Cheek” is
directed by South campus
drama instructor Sheleigh
Carmichael with Saxon as
assistant director. The entire
cast doubles as the set crew.

Duperier promises
congressional office
Lisa Duperier, candidate
for U.S. Congress against
Jack Brooks, told the Clear
Lake Chamber of Com-
merce that one of her first
considerations as U.S.
Representative would be to
set up a congressional office
in Harris County.
The last congressional of-
fice for the 9th district
located in Harris County
was under Ron Paul in
1980.
In 1981, Texas was re-
districted and the South Belt
area was changed from the
9th to the 22nd U.S. Con-
gressional District.
Currently, Brooks con-
gressional offices are
located in Beaumont and
Galveston.
Republican candidate
Duperier will be facing
long-time congressional
representative Brooks in the
November election.
